Evans, Bill. (1929–1980). Signed High School Yearbook. A remarkable early signed item from the innovative and highly regarded jazz pianist who worked briefly with Miles Davis before forming his own trio in the late 1950s. Evans’s influence as a keyboard artist has been acknowledged by the likes of Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, and Keith Jarrett. Plagued by a decades-long struggle with hepatitis and drug addition, Evans died at the age of 51.

Uncommon 1945 Canuck yearbook from Bill Evans’ junior year at North Plainfield High School in North Plainfield, New Jersey.  8 x 11 inches, signed and inscribed on page 66 in black ink, “Pat, You’re bound to be a success in everything you do so I give you my best, Bill Evans ’88,’” with Evans pictured as a member of the band.  In overall very good condition, with expected wear and aging to the covers; interior pages are clean. Scarce in any form, this is undoubtedly one of the earliest signed photographs of the great musician!
